CVE-2026-53487

Kite is a Kubernetes dashboard. Prior to version 0.12.3, authenticated Kite users with any role can request `/api/v1/overview` for a cluster that their roles do not permit by selecting that cluster with `x-cluster-name`. The overview route is registered before `middleware.RBACMiddleware()` and `GetOverview` only checks `len(user.Roles) > 0`, so it returns aggregate Kubernetes inventory and capacity data from unauthorized clusters. Version 0.12.3 fixes the issue.

Summary		(es) Kite es un panel de control de Kubernetes. Antes de la versión 0.12.3, los usuarios autenticados de Kite con cualquier rol pueden solicitar '/API/v1/overview' para un clúster que sus roles no permiten, seleccionando ese clúster con 'x-cluster-name'. La ruta de la vista general se registra antes de 'middleware.RBACMiddleware()' y 'GetOverview' solo verifica 'len(user.Roles) > 0', por lo que devuelve datos agregados de inventario y capacidad de Kubernetes de clústeres no autorizados. La versión 0.12.3 soluciona el problema.
